I just see too many question marks to reasonably think they all get answered positively, or even enough of them do.
QB- Mauk is wildly inconsistent. Way too much down last year. Must improve vastly.
RB- Depth here is a big concern to me if Steward and Abbington can't go. Even if they do you are looking at two guys who really haven't played.
WR- virtually zero experience. Like the talent, just have to see it produce. Iffy at best.
OL- lots of experience and two sure fire Sunday guys, but also aim thinking the coaches did not like what they had at T considering they took two JUCO guys and moved our best interior guy outside. I definitely do not like all of the shuffling here. Cause for concern imo, but a reasonable chance to be a strength if a few things fall into place.
DL- man, big losses here. I have faith in Kul but just seems too much to overcome. Harris better be ready to be a star and TBJ better be ready to be a serious contributor or we may be in trouble.
LB- love our depth, experience, talent. No issues.
DB- maybe our best position group. Think we have two Sunday corners, Simon is a 3 year starter and I think Sherrills can be a superstar. Like the mix of experience and young talent behind them as well. Back 7 is strong and pretty deep.
ST- this is where we will really miss Murphy. He was a game changer. Also a new punter, but that may not be a bad thing.
Hope I'm wrong, but just too many question marks for them all to come up roses imo. If GP can win the East once again it would just be a phenomenal coaching job. Maybe his best ever.

Don't forget our schedule. We have three, what I like to call, "pre-season" games before SEC play starts with UK. We should have a good idea what this team can do after the 4th week.

You're being way too pessimistic my friend. 
I guess it's possible but let me do it this way:
2015 Mauk > 2014 Mauk
2015 Hansbrough > 2014 Hansbrough
2015 Culkin > 2014 Culkin
2015 McGovern > 2014 McGovern
2015 Boehm > 2014 Boehm
2015 Hall > 2014 Hall
2015 Chappell > 2014 Chappell
2015 McNulty > 2014 McNulty
If guys get moved around from there, it's because it is making us better, not worse.
As for WR's, I agree. Big question mark. But it was a big question mark last year after losing DGB and Copelin along with the seniors that graduated. Someone will catch the ball. Guaranteed.

I agree. My gut is telling me 2015 could be a little of a letdown.
The Texas players (Pinkel's gold mine) have cycled through and now the leaders will have to be the Maty Mauk's instead of the Marcus Murphy's.
I hope I'm wrong, but I've been fearing / dreading the change in the point of recruiting emphasis from Texas to the Southeast, and now is when we'll start to find out if Pinkel will still have his touch with players from Georgia and Florida.
